Best Answer

I will work in Joules, then convert to calories.

q(Joules) = mass * specific heat * change in temperature C

q = (27.3 g Cu)(0.385 J/gC)(74.4o C - 36.2o C)

= 402 Joules (1 calorie/4.184 Joules)

= 96.1 calories

How many calories are required to increase the temperature of 13g of alcohol from 11 celsius to 23 celsius?

2.460 is the specific heat of ethyl alcohol in J/gC, so I will find joules and then convert to calories. q(joules) = mass*specific heat*change in temp. q = (13 g alcohol )(2.460 J/gC)(23 C - 11 C) = 383.76 joules (1 calorie/4.184 joules) = 92 calories ------------------

Why do you use Calorie instead of calorie?

A Calorie with a capital "C" is 1,000 calories with a little 'c'. Nutritional guides on food products measure Calories. A calorie is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water one degree celsius. Normally when you eat food it gives you energy. If you eat 1 Calorie of food, it is enough energy to heat one kilogram (2.2 pounds) of water one degree celsius. Jus to maintain your body temperature, you need to eat a lot of Calories. On the other hand, if you eat a 10 gram ice cube, your body has to raise the temperature of the ice from 0 degrees celsius to 37 degrees celsius (body temperature). You will burn 370 calories in the process, but that is only .370 Calories.
